It is the time of the month again! I have a new set of blocks
for the Super Penguin Quilt Along! This month, we've got
a chocolate bar, a baking set, and a kitchen scale!
It is available here through superbuzzy!

A chocolate bar! This is such a fun block to make!
Not a big fan of milk chocolate or brown fabric in general?
Then maybe you can make it white, strawberry, or even greentea
chocolate or possibly a combination of all yummy colors!? You are the chef!

A baking set! One thing I am very pleased about this block is ease!
It may look a bit complicated at first, but actually it consists of
only two sections - top and bottom, which makes the whole
process pretty easy and quick.

A kitchen scale! This one is easy peasy and beginner-friendly!
This too consists of only two sections, top and bottom,
so it comes together pretty quick!

Each of these measures 7 1/2”W x 7”H finished = a perfect size for
a potholder if you want to turn one block into it!

Here is how all my QAL blocks look like together so far!
All the patterns are available at superbuzzy here!

I hope you'll have fun playing with the patterns and
share your progress in this flickr group ;)

Completely off the topic, but my in-laws will be in town
next week! Eeeek! This is going to be their very first time to
visit Japan and both Joe and I are so excited about showing them
around Japan! So exciting!

Ooh good luck with the in-laws!! My SIL and her husband are visting for 4 whole weeks from mid-Dec and we can't wait :) And on the topic of chocolate? Our local Aeon just got a complete refurbishment/renovation and has included an import specialty store that stocks my favourite brand of chocolate - Cadbury. So. Happy!

Hi Ayumi - hope you can still remember me. :) Have been visiting your blog but usually don't have the time to leave you a comment,, but thought I should leave you one now to congratulate you on your upcoming book - so exciting! I hope Kinokuniya in singapore will sell that book when it's released next year, can't wait to buy it - congratulations Ayumi!

Of course I remember you ;) Thank you for taking the moment to leave a comment! The book will be published in America, so you may find the book at a local bookstore over there, maybe not at kinokuniya ;)

Hi Ayumi,More absolutely fun and amazing blocks! I'm crazy about kitchen motives and love the letters fabric around the bowl! The numbers in the kicthen scale are gorgeous and the chocolat slice must be mine because I love dark chocolat! I'm so glad I have already done pre-order of your book in London Amazone ^_^!!!!Happy week!

Thanks for stopping by my blog! My name is Ayumi. I love sharing my crafty journal and other little anecdotes in my life here. I am a mother to a baby girl and a wife to my husband from Seattle. We live in a small apartment in Tokyo. I hope you enjoy being here :) Welcome♪
